A New York Times report details diversity issues at Vogue
A new report in The New York Times by Edmund Lee describes Vogue's work culture as one that has "sidelined and tokenized women of color, especially Black women." The racism, according to primary sources, "was usually subtle, but sometimes blunt" and often stemmed from Anna Wintour. "Many Black people who worked for her said they felt so out of place in Ms. Wintour's domain that they created white alter egos," Lee writes. While others offered a more pleasant view of the editor, saying Wintour has promoted people of color to top roles and has worked to make inclusivity a priority. {The New York Times}

The Covid-19 pandemic has upended the usual retail calendar and caused delivery networks to come under record strain. The holiday solution many retailers have come up with is to have major markdowns more than a month before Black Friday to avoid competition from rivals online and the shipping rush. Another solution is to create incentives for customers to pick up orders themselves. {Business of Fashion}
